Janet Jackson has been hospitalized in Montreal after falling ill before a scheduled concert performance, ET confirms. Original details on her condition were not clear, though she is said to be under observation.

The 42-year-old superstar suddenly fell ill before a scheduled concert and was rushed to a hospital earlier in the day during a soundcheck, according to her rep.

"Janet Jackson's much anticipated concert in Montreal, as part of her Rock Witchu Tour, had to be canceled after the superstar entertainer got suddenly ill during her sound check earlier today and had to be rushed to the hospital just before showtime. She is currently being monitored and is extremely disappointed that she is not able to perform for her fans in Montreal. Tonight's performance would have been Janet's first appearance in the city in seven years. She is hoping that seat holders will retain their tickets. The promoter is working with the Bell Centre to announce a rescheduled date with details to be announced shortly."

There is no information given about what caused Janet to become so suddenly ill, but ET will continue to bring you the latest developments as they come in.
